mperkh's bug description matches an issue that we are tracking internally. The current understanding is that it's a bug in how safaridriver launches/connects to MobileSafari. Being more specific about iPad/iPhone capabilities is very likely not related, but thanks for sharing your experience.

Also a reminder to file safaridriver bugs at https://feedbackassistant.apple.com/. Feel free to email me with your FB id if you'd like confirmation that I've gotten the bug report.
